Our nursery provides care for children newborn to two years on Sunday mornings for each hour of worship. We offer a welcoming, nurturing and safe place for your child. We want your child to feel welcome and be part of God's family while learning of His love.
Our Nursery Staff
Sunday morning Nursery workers are both paid staff member and volunteers that have completed background checks. Nursery staff is well trained and receive training on a regular basis. Our volunteers also receive training. While you are attending church, the Nursery staff and volunteers will be sharing God's love with your child through pictures, praise, playful interaction and songs. If you feel a calling to this ministry, please contact the Director of the Nursery Ministry or the Director of the Children's Ministry.
Signing In at the Nursery
We are blessed with many young children! Our nursery is located in the north building. The north hallway leads to our classrooms. A sign by each door indicates the age group for that room. There is an attendance roster at each door or a yellow visitor sheet. Please note any special instructions for your child at this time. If you are wanting your child's name to be put on the attendance roster you can complete a blue registration form.
After you sign in, you will be given a vibrating pager or a card with a security number (this option is used for those attending the church service only). If you have a card, and a problem arises, the number will flash on the Parent Notification boards located in the sanctuary.
The Nursery staff is encouraged to page parents only when necessary. If you are paged, please come to your child's room as quickly as possible.
Snacks and Supplies
Please bring all necessary items, including "a love seat" with you! Make sure all items, including the bag, are labeled. Parents are responsible for supplying bottles, milk, formula, juice cups, finger foods, pacifiers and loveys. If you use cloth diapers, include a sealable plastic bag for soiled diapers. Please note any concerns about allergies to certain snacks on the sign- in sheet.
Illness
The welfare of the children under our care is important to us. If your child becomes ill you will be notified immediately. WE ask that sick children not be brought tot the Nursery. Please refrain from bringing your child if he/she has had any of the following symptoms within the past 24 hours: diarrhea, vomiting, fever, rash, or virus.
Children who have seen a physician and/or taken antibiotics for 48 hours will be admitted at the discretion of the Nursery staff. Please understand that any decision regarding and ill child is made to provide a healthy and comfortable atmosphere for all children, volunteers, and staff members.
Concerns
Our goal is to provide your child with a loving and safe Christian atmosphere. From time to time, concerns do arise. Please inform us of any problems so they may be addressed immediately. If the staff can assist you or your child, please let us know by contacting the Director of the Nursery Ministry.
